1 Year Introduction
Hello! I have been a member for about a year and still greatly appreciate this app. In the past I have always struggled with eating, I would skip most meals and bury myself in work.

Why are sugar alcohols not being deducted from carbs along with fiber to come up with net carbs?

Add tracking option for Total Carbs
Since you cannot always trust manufactures to be truthful about net carbs, it would be good to track total carbs. I follow both Gary Brecka and Mark Sission and both suggest that you keep your total carbs at 50 or under a day for a keto diet.
App's calculation of net carbs doesn't work for Allulose
I'm on a ketogenic diet and I'm using Allulose (a rare indigestible sugar) in my coffee and with my first snack after dinner. Supposedly it slows stomach emptying, reducing appetite, stimulates excretion of blood glucose by the kidneys, and makes it easier for the brain to use ketones. So I want to track my use of it. But…

Hi all, new member here! Type 1 Diabetic who has been referring to MFP for carb info for years and thought I'd finally sign up in hopes of losing a bit of weight (shred to wed) whilst also keeping an eye on what I'm ACTUALLY eating. Would love to know what my fellow diabetics are using as low cal hypo treatments?
Show Net Carbs on Desktop App, Under Nutrition Macros
Sometimes, it's easier to add food to the diary using a laptop, but I have to go to my phone to see accurate nutrition macros breakdown. The phone app reports percentage of net carbs, the desktop app shows percentage of total carbs. I'd like to see consistent reporting between the apps.

Carb Totals For MFP Rollups Off For Some Reason?
Hi there -- Im wondering why on the app each entry is showing less carb totals than it should. Fat & protein don't seem to be affected by this. Just attached one example but this appears to be affecting every single entry. Is this a bug or am I just missing something important here?
